Brandon P. with Meridian Concrete came out to bid our job on 12/18/25 and quoted us $2396 for our job, and then said he could get it down to $2,200. I reached out to him a month later to accept the bid. Brandon P. from Meridian Concrete | Meridian Curbing & Landscape: Hey Ted Brandon here. I talked with the owner we would need to be at $2,395.98 This would provide concrete a piece of equipment to install and our mobilization fees to get someone out there to do it. This wouldn't provide any digging or any extras then facilitating and laying down the concrete. Let me know what direction you would like to go and how we can help! I do appreciate your time today! Brandon P. from Meridian Concrete | Meridian Curbing & Landscape: If you can confirm with the person building the structure I can get this down to $2,200 if all we have to do is facilitate concrete and lay it down! Let me know and I can send you a formal quote. So the formal bid comes over and it's $3,031! When questioned about the $831 increase, he tells me: Brandon P. from Meridian Concrete | Meridian Curbing & Landscape: Yes and I did mention to you there is also the cost of concrete itself we have to be able to factor in mobilization and the labor for that time being there with equipment. I then pointed out that his earlier text stated: "This would provide concrete a piece of equipment to install and our mobilization fees to get someone out there to do it." He literally said the price included material, equipment and labor. When I called out his B.S he replied: Brandon P. from Meridian Concrete | Meridian Curbing & Landscape: Pricing also went up 10% at the beginning of the year Jan 1st with the material costs from our suppliers so there's things us as a company have to factor in we also lose half a day providing this service so it has to make sense. I understand where you are coming from but when we met it was also in December before the price increases. The first time he mentions a material cost increase is when I called him on the carpet, and 10% increase on the whole job would be $220. Folks, don't waste your time lining up your other contractors unless your prepared for their bait and switch games! read more

My new driveway extension looked great when it was finished. The price was reasonable, compared with other companies. Soon after, I noticed that the lid to the electrical box in the driveway extension did not sit flush, and rocked back and forth when stepped on. After waiting 5 months to get a response, Kevin W with Meridian Concrete said that it would cost ME an additional $2100 to fix the problem that should have been done correctly at the beginning of the project! I'm not paying MORE MONEY to a project that already cost $3950. At this time, Meridian Concrete refuses to fix their mistake. read more

Do not use this company unless you are comfortable being left in the dark with little to no communication. We reached out to Meridian Concrete on March 24 for a patio extension. Kevin came out the next day, described it as "easy," and said it could be completed quickly even mentioning it could have been done that same weekend if we had reached out earlier. Naturally, we expected a straightforward process. We approved the estimate, paid the deposit, and asked about scheduling. That is where communication essentially stopped. On March 27, I called for an update and was told my message would be "passed along." Later that day, we received a text saying they would let us know when they had a start date. I gave it a few weeks and heard nothing. April 13, I called again and asked for a call back. Instead, I received a text saying we were tentatively scheduled for late May or early June. May 4, I called and left a message. Again, I received a text saying we were scheduled for June 1 and could be moved up. I said yes, of course that didn't happen. May 26, I called again. My message was "passed along." No call back. On May 27, I emailed saying we were preparing for the June 1 start date. Only then did we finally receive a call from Brandon. We were told they could not start because another project was prioritized. Being a small business and "still learning" was mentioned, but taking a deposit and then going silent for weeks is not okay. We were told possibly June 2, and promised to confirm by Friday, May 29 at 3 PM. May 29th, 3pm came and went with no communication (again). I called Brandon at 3:30 PM and as I was leaving a voicemail Brandon answered. He then said the project would start June 1 after all and that the project manager would reach out Sunday, May 31 with details. May 31, shocking, no one reached out to us. I had to follow up again, and was told the crew would arrive between 8-10 AM. June 1, the crew arrived and began work. Around 11 AM, we were told the project length didn't match the estimate. We agreed to extend it at an additional cost. The crew left that afternoon, and the next day they did not show up. No call, no message. I reached out again and was told they "couldn't get concrete." Work continued June 3 and was completed. After completion, we noticed the patio was not built to the agreed length. We later learned this was due to a crawl space vent, but no one communicated this or gave us the option to decide. The crew made that decision. When we asked, Ruben said he wasn't aware either, which raises the question of why the project manager was not on-site. This left our lawn with exposed dirt about a 1 ft by 12 ft section. When we asked about a price adjustment, we were told it would be "only $86, not much." That may not matter to them, but it mattered to us. Had we asked for the patio to be extended that length, they would have charged us. We were also given no care instructions despite their contract stating, "Verbal care instructions will be provided upon completion." Also no information about any warranty. To be clear, the crew was hardworking and professional. Our issue is with the company's management and communication, specifically Kevin, Brandon, and Ruben. At multiple points, we had to initiate every update. Dates were not honored, promised follow-ups didn't happen, and key decisions were made without our input. At one point, it genuinely felt like our project was written on a sticky note somewhere, no one seemed to have clear understanding of scheduling or accountability. We received better communication on a $10 Amazon purchase than we did on a $4,000 concrete project. We're not looking for an apology. The best thing this company could do is acknowledge they completely dropped the ball and improve their communication. Overcommunicating is always better than none. Once you take a deposit, you owe your customer clear timelines, proactive updates, and follow-through. Based on our experience, I would not recommend this company and would strongly suggest looking elsewhere. read more
